Actress and America’s Next Top Model winner, Eva Marcille attended the BET Awards ’12 at The Shrine Auditorium on July 1, 2012 in Los Angeles, California. Marcille glowed in white and showed off her lengthy limbs. I love her earrings, make-up and her all-around sexy summer look.

Kim Kardashian attended the 2012 BET Awards in a body-hugging white dress. She happened to match her beau Kanye West. Coincidence? I think not but either way do you think she could walk away Best Dressed of the night? Wrong again but it does compliment her physique and she does look picture perfect.
